Antonio Fenelus on signing with the Colts

Antonio Fenelus didn't get selected in the NFL draft, but he knew who he was going to sign with if he had the chance - the Indianapolis Colts. And that's what Fenelus did shortly after the end of this year's draft.

Fenelus took a couple of minutes out of his time at Disney World - and a bunch of happy, loud kids (trust me) - to talk about his signing.

Q. I know you are at Disney World ... did you have your ear to the draft at all?

A. I was just at Disney World with my family and we were just getting on rides. We stayed there throughout the whole draft.

My agent had been telling me from the get-go that if I didn’t get drafted he liked the Colts a lot and the fact they had some open spots at the cornerback position. He felt like that was the best place for me to get in and play special teams and contribute at the cornerback position.

Q. Were the Colts one of the teams you had met with?

A. I’ve been talking to them the most out of any team. At the combine, they were the only team I had an informal interview with, where you meet with the entire team, the whole coaching staff. So I talked to them a lot during the whole process.

Q. So it was almost like a no-brainer for you to sign with them.

A. I kind of knew throughout the draft if I didn’t get drafted who I was going to go with.

Q. Not being drafted, but signing with a team - is it a bittersweet experience?

A. I don’t look at it as being bitter at all. It is a blessing to get a chance to prove myself and go to a camp and make a 53-man roster.

Q. What's next for you?

A. They fly me out Thursday for minicamp. So that’s next.

Q. What's your overall feeling of how things went, and being able to sign with an NFL team.

A. It was a great feeling knowing I’m going to be headed somewhere. A lot of guys don’t even get a chance to get to camp. So it is great to be able to sign with the Colts as a free agent and prove myself to the coaches.
